Evaporative Control Smoke Testing
Anyone here know much about this ? .
I know just enough to know I need it but have no idea where to rent/borrow/beg the tool . Here in California there are "STAR TEST STATIONS" that are licensed but not a single one either has the tool (a fairly simple if accurate) or is willing to do the job ~ I don't think and of the licensed smog technicians I've talked to has ever actually done this test, I'm stuck, any help will be appreciated ! .

Is this talking about smoke testing the evaporative canister system? That is what it sounds like to me.
This is what I picked up a few years ago. One of the best tools in the shop.

Smoke Testing
Yes, correct .
I'm pretty sure there's a leak right at the tank . I cannot afford to buy a new machine .
